Can someone tell me which version of Python is in Fedora 42? I can't find a definitive answer (I get either 3.13 or 3.14rc2 when searching online). My upgrade painfulness level is always dependent on if there is a Python version uptick between what I currently have and the new release.

@monsieuricon me too! Dnf often gets borked by python changes…

@jeroen Hmm... that's probably not the base Python version, just a version installable alongside. The default is already 3.13 in Fedora 41.

@lkundrak if I upgrade and it's 3.14-rc2, I'll hold you personally responsible. ;)

@monsieuricon i didn't upgrade to f42 yet, but lazily picked a random build on koji and looked into root.log to see what gets pulled into the buildroot: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=131563808

@monsieuricon also, dnf --releasever=42 update python3 seems to be pulling in the same version? (i don't fully understand python packaging)

edit also: python-unversioned-command -- same version, 3.13

@TobiX @lkundrak Ah, that's the one, thank you! So, I should be okay upgrading to 42 without expecting too much fallout.

@monsieuricon @TobiX are python developers still torturing its users on upgrades?

you should upgrade to perl then

@lkundrak @TobiX I torture myself, thank you very much. It's my local pip tree, which I really should have installed in a venv, but haven't. :)
